Fay owns the local newspaper, but after one of her life-altering choices, she leaves the daily workings to someone else and instead chooses to just deliver newspapers. While out and about on her deliveries, Fay finds a mysterious woman inside Joe Wise’s home who claims to be the new housekeeper. When two bodies come up dead, both being close to Joe, Fay and Mitch begin to dig deep to find some answers. And even as some anonymous tips point towards Fay, the real killer is on a path of destruction with Fay being the next target.

A Dangerous Woman is about Fay; an overweight, divorced, recently nicotine free woman on a six-month hiatus from the newspaper she owns. Debra Lee tells the story of how Mitch and Fay become embroiled in a murder investigation. There is a certain tension between the two main characters that hints of more storylines to come. The up and down struggle that Fay has with certain characters made for some unique twists and turns that I found enjoyable. It will be interesting to see where Fay and Mitch go from here.
